Abstract
Abstract of the Disclosure A method of protecting shores against oil pollutants, wherein a web-like oil-retaining textile (1) is lowered into the water in parallel with the shore and the textile is drawn in the transverse direction up on the shore over a strip of land (8) which is in danger of getting polluted in such a manner that a longitudinal edge (2) of the textile remains in the water. The oil which is thrown towards the shore by the waves adhers to the textile and is thereby prevented from contacting the strip of land.
A means for protecting shores against oil comprises a web-like oil-retaining textile (1), one longitudinal edge of which is provided with a heavy foot rope (2) and the other longitudinal edge is provided with floats (7) and cords (5) for drawing up the textile up on the shore in the transversal direction. The textile preferably is a needled fibrous felt having a width of 4 to 8 meters.

Description
2~i0~
A method of and a means for protecting shores against oil pollutants This invention relates to a method of protecting shores against oil pollutants, wherein a means is posi-tioned in the way of oil got into water to prevent the oil from spreading up on a shore.
Measures taken to prevent shores from being pollut-ed from oil got into the water have so far had as an aim mainly to prevent the oil in the water from reaching the shores by means of different kinds of booms and similar devices. If some oil has reached the shore in spite of the preventive measures, the polluting effect of oil has been tried to be avoided merely by clearing off the oil from the strip of land along the shoreline. Removing of the oil has been carried out by means of shovels and the like and/or by spreading peat on the oil. Also burning has been used to some extent. However, the removal of the oil layers from gravel shores, for instance, is very difflcult, because the oil easily spreads in between stones, on account of which also the stones must be re-moved. Anyway, shores can never be completely cleaned this way.
The object of the present invention is to provide a method which avoids the above disadvantages and enables shores to be protected simply and with relatively inexpen-sive means. This object is achieved by means of a method according to the invention, which is characterized in that a web-like oil-retaining textile is lowered into the water in parallel with the shore and that the textile is drawn in the transverse direction up on the shore over a strip of land which is in danger of getting polluted in such a manner that a longitudinal edge of the textile on the side of the water remains in the water.
The invention is based on the idea that the oil which reaches the shore is prevented from clinging to the sand and stones on the shore by spreading a textile for the protection of a strip of land along the shoreline so that the oil clings to the textile which also prevents the oil thrown by the waves from making contact with the sand and the stones. Such a textile can be easily lowered into the water near the shore from a vessel and drawn from the shore to cover the strip of land so that the edge of the textile on the side of the water remains below the water level, thereby preventing the oil float ing on the surface of the water from getting under the textile.
The invention also relates to a means for protect-ing shores against oil pollutants and this means is characterized in that it is formed by a web-like oil-adhering textile, such as a fibrous felt, one longitudi-nal edge of which is provided with weights, the other longi-tudinal edge being floatable and provided with means for drawing of the textile in the transverse direction thereof.
Such a web-like textile can be easily lowered into the water from a vessel and thereafter drawn up on the shore to provide a cover for the strip of land in question.
The means according to the invention can, of course, be used also in the water near the shore to gather oil by lifting the longitudinal edges of the -textile above the surface of the water. Oil can be easily gathered from the resulting trough. With the means according to the in-vention, oil can be easily cleared off from a strip of land along the shoreline and from the waterside as well.
The invention will be more closely described in the following with reference to the attached drawing, wherein Figures 1 and 2 are a front and an end view res-pectively of an oil protection means according to the invention, and Figures 3 and 4 are vertical sections which illus-trate the carrying out of the method according to the - \ / ~
~z~
invention by means of the oil protection means.
The oil protection means shown in the drawing is formed by a web-like textile 1, such as a needled fibrous felt, which in principle can be of any length, e.g.
X 100 m and which can be e.g. rolled up for use. The textile can be manufactured of a synthetic raw material which is lighter than water and to which the oil adhers and which either as such or together with a tight film prevents oil from penetrating the web.
One longitudinal edge of the textile is provided with a continuous foot rope 2 which is heavier than water, the other longitudinal edge being provided with a buoyant head rope 3 which is lighter than water. Both ropes also serve as edge reinforcements. Both longitudi-nal edges are further provided with mutually spaced cords 4 and 5 respectively and floats 6 and 7 respectively are fastened to the ends of said cords.
To avoid oil damages the oil pro-tection means is lowered into the water from a roll upon a vessel which is moving at a safe depth in parallel with the shore to be protected. Said floats 6 and 7 are preferably Eastened to the textile when the textile is being lowered into the water either together with the cords 4,5 or the floats are fastened to the cords which have been attached to the textile in advance. The longitudinal edge of the textile which is provided with the foot rope 2 sinks to the bottom whereas the longitudinal edge provided with the buoyant head rope 3 is carried towards the shore by the waves, as appears from Figure 3.
The cords 5 can be grabbed from the floats 7, whereafter the textile l is drawn from the shore over a strip of land 8 which is washed by the waves. The cords 5 are fastened on the shore to prevent displacement of the textile. The foot rope 2 presses the edge of the textile against the bottom below the water level, there-by preventing oil Erom getting under the textile.
~2~i~441 After the oil has been carried to the shore on the textile, the cords 4 of the floats can be grabbed and the foot rope can be lifted to the surface of the water, so that the textile can be drawn together and be tran~-ported away from the shore.
It is noted that the invention provides a simple way of protecting shores against oil pollutants by cover~
ing the endangered shore area with a means which can be contaminated and which can be relatively easily positioned in place and gathered away with the oil contained therein.
It is well known that different kinds of web-like textiles and wires can nowadays be manufactured in fairly large widths so that one textile width is usually enough for the protection of an endangered strip of land up to a sufEicient height. The textile can normally be e.g. 4 to 5 meters in width and in some special cases even 8 to 10 meters. If required, several textiles can be spread out in parallel over the area to be protected. The textile can be manufactured relatively thin and it must withstand without tearing mainly only when it is lowered into the water and gathered away from the shore. It is, of course, possible to keep in store textile rolls having different widths, whereby the different widths correspond to the width of the strip of land to be protected in each parti-cular case.
The drawing the related description are only intended to illustrate the idea of the invention. In their details, the method and the means according to the invention may vary within the scope of the claims. The textile can be e.g. a woven felt or a laminated textile in which the upper side is made of a fibrous felt material and the lower side of a plastic film or some other oil-impermeable material.
